"Just say the word if you ever want to take me up on it. I know Fret sneaks back here sometimes for treats without me. You could always give him a letter. Besides, a bit of time without you will only make the bar realize how much they need you around." Gangleri reached into a pocket to pull out a pack of well worn cards, idly shuffling them. He didn't have to even think about whether or not he meant what he said, or worry that she might try to take him up on it at an inconvenient time. He could always make time for Quil.
He chuckled. "You, tie me down? I should have suspected you had a bit of kink in you." He took another sip of his drink and then added with a smile, "Though in seriousness, if I were to be tied to a location again, I wouldn't mind you being the cause. You're a good and lovely woman, Quil, even if you are secretly the villain of the piece. And besides, having a home doesn't mean you have to stop going on adventures."
That was something that Kathany had never really understood. She frequently fought him when he would volunteer to travel a circuit or help get a Harper settled in on a new assignment elsewhere. He brushed the thought of his wife aside, instead grinning at Quilriana again. "Just be careful with Bart. He thinks he has refined taste, but he once took me to a meadow instead of back to town. I was too drunk to argue with him at the time."
